How do you return the most recent date of multiple columns.
I have a table (tbl_courses) that has a list of training courses. We want to know when a client completed the course most recently.
The problem is, for one course there has been up to 4/5 different variations of the course with different names over the years. E.g. "Drug awareness" has also been known as "Drug Aware" "Illegal Substances" and "Stoppers". I want to pull through the most recent date for all of the above.
We have a field in the Courses table that links the courses into groups (e.g. All drug aware courses come under "23"). Not sure if that works?
Is there a way to do this? The Tbl_Courses is linked to Tbl_Clients via a ClientID.
I've managed to do it in SQL using GREATEST() but that isn't an option in Access.
I have a query that uses a linked table from an external database and joins it with a table from my database to return records that contain the same values.
Is there a way to return only the records that are present in the external database and not in my db?
I have a approximately 70 queries in my database. I would like to be able to run a query which would run all of the queries and output the number of records for each query. Ideally, these would then be written to a table so that the user could then just read the values from the table for the latest results, rathe r than have to execute the whole thing again.
The user may wish to select which queries to run. I was thinking that I would need a table as follows called say tblQueryResults:
So my first dilema is to work out how to run all the chosen queries that the user wishes to run. The user will probably have all 70 ticked as Yes initially.
Should I run this from VB code with a whole lot of VB statements. I would like to loop through the whole table and collect a list of all the queries to run based on a positive Yes for some or all of the queries. The results must then go and be written into the same table under the date it was run and the number of records that was found for each query.
The whole reason for doing this is that queries which return no records need not be run by the user - saving the user time etc. I appreciate that this query will take a considerable amount of time - given that it could be as many as 70 being run one after another.
i intially, I wish to have attendance stats for 3 groups of people over 2 days in a report
i have the two queries for the raw data, but wish to combine into a report that will ultimately become a "dashboard" report for half a dozen queries., and can only get one or the other to work do i need to combine the queries into a summary query of sorts?
i have a db consist of order table of three basics no 1 is battery no 2 is parts and no 3 is i have made a query transaction based on that.
Now what i need is to get total monthly sale amount of above three category .. then same as for daily and also how can i show all these reports in one summary report.
I need to add a column to a crosstab query that counts all of the occurrences of "P" in a particular row in the crosstab query. Basically "P" stands for "Present" and I need to know how many days each employee was present for his/her shift. The SQL for the crosstab query is as follows:
PARAMETERS [Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtStartDateAndTime] DateTime, [Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtEndDateAndTime] DateTime; TRANSFORM First(tblAttendance.AttendanceCode) AS FirstOfAttendanceCode SELECT tblAttendance.EmployeeName FROM tblAttendance WHERE (((tblAttendance.AttendanceDate)>=[Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtStartDateAndTime] And (tblAttendance.AttendanceDate)<=[Forms]![frmDashboardReports]![txtEndDateAndTime])) GROUP BY tblAttendance.EmployeeName PIVOT Format([AttendanceDate],"Short Date");
This returns an "AttendanceCode" against each employee against each day in the specified time period. I just need to be able to "sum" those codes in a column.
I am basically looking for a way to display the total number of records for a selected number of tables and queries in my database on one screen or on one single page view. The problem with using reports or forms is that they tend to bind you to a single table as a record source. This summary would require multiple tables and queries. The summary data would look something like this with a total coming from a Count() or count type function:
# of records: 3000 # of records to insert: 500 # of records to delete: 400 # of records to update: 2100 # of records changing location: 100
I have a database with with 100s of values for a field. What I would like to be do is specify a value via a form and the query will return all options that equal the specified value.
I have a large table with many fields and many rows. There is no primary key. I'll call one field ParentPN, and another field ChildPN. There are many other fields as well. I want to identify all rows where BOTH the ParentPN and ChildPN occur more than once. I know how to create a query to identify duplicates of ONE field in the table, but not two. I can solve this with VBA: I will read the two fields of interest in the first row, then compare both values with every other row. If it finds another row with BOTH ParentPN and ChildPN identical with the first, that's a "hit". Then, repeat with all the other rows. I could find ways to make this run faster, but I was wondering if there are any build in functions to accomplish this. I looked at the Find Duplicates query builder, and all I see is I can select ONE field to search for dupes, not two.
I have two date columns in my table called "End date" and "Closing date".
An example could be 14-06-2015 and 13-04-2017.
I need to make a query which is checking if the two dates are equal to the last day of their respective month. I don't have two columns in the table with the last day of month, so I first need to find out what the last day in the month is.
I am trying to delete a record in tblinclude where record from tblexclude are equal to clientid and codeid
Here is the sql DELETE tblinclude.ClientID FROM tblexclude INNER JOIN tblinclude ON (tblexclude.ClientID = tblinclude.ClientID) AND (tblexclude.CodeID = tblinclude.CodeID) WHERE (((tblinclude.ClientID)=1));
I get the error Specify the table containing the records you want to delete. I've searched for this but I am just not getting it today.
I have a query run that gives me a list of records that I view on a continuos form. What I want is to press a button and run a macro/Append Query to add a Single Summary record to another table.
For example my query spits out this data
Part # Quantity Serial Number GO2 1 123 GO2 2 456 GO2 2 789
What I'm looking to get is
Part Number Total Quantity Serial Number 1 Serial Number 2 .. GO2 5 123 456
I'm stuck on a couple of things.
1. Getting a new single row to append. 2. Getting Serial Numbers from several records to save on to a single record.
I am currently developing a database to provide a friend with an auction tracking and ordering system.
I will have a number of questions the first is related to the Home Page/Dashboard/Summary form I am creating. I basically have a few sections, one of which is a combo box offering the user to select an auction to view in the summary section. This summary section contains the list of lots but I also hope to to expand on this and create multiple text boxes, each containing the answer to a number of queries (totals etc).
I have written all the queries and can see the results however as the form does not have a record source I would like to know how to make each text box populate with the result of different queries (ideally in vb - I am using ms access 2010)?
I have tried a few things, control source doesn't apply as I have no record source (i guess). I investigated Dlookup/Dcount but am unsure if these apply for the same reason. I understand I am likely to need a recordset etc in vb and have already tried a few things but unfortunately none of them work.
same as the title goes, why i can't query those figures greater than 15% only? How am i suppose to query them right?.Here is my database you cant check query1 and query 2. I am using Ms Access 2010.
I have a MS ACCESS 2010 database with a data table which i am trying to create a query from. I have 6 columns of data( one with an ID Field and 5 Name Fields). Below i have made examples of how it first appears as a simple query and the second will show you what i would like it to look like.
What the simple query looks like: [URL] ...
Second what I want the query to look like: [URL] ....
I am trying to run a query where one field has a Not Equal parameter AND another field has Not Equal parameter (for example, Product Code Not Equal "A" AND Client State Not Equal "NY)
The result of the above query are all records that have Product Code = "A" are missing from the result. I want some of the "A" Product Codes; I just want to exclude the ones where the Client state is NY.
The list of values for each field is too big to state it in a positive way (I would have to list all the other 28 product codes and all the other 49 states).
What am I doing wrong? Thank you in advance for any suggestions.
I have 3 queries named Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth, Mech Final Equipment 6 Mth, and Mech Historical Final Equipment.They all have two fields-Final equipment and Sum of Sum of Down (calculating the number of minutes each piece of equipment was down in the time period selected).
My ultimate goal is to join the three queries to display a pivot chart that uses the Final Equipment as the category field and 3 Mth, 6Mth, and Historical as seperate data fields.What I have is a join query (Which I have named Mech Final Equipment H63 Joined)
Using this SQL:
Code:
SELECT DISTINCTROW [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment], Sum([Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Sum Of Down]) AS Duration FROM [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth] GROUP BY [Mech Final Equipment 3 Mth].[Final Equipment] UNION
[code]...
Which returns a table that looks like this:
Final Equipment, Duration
Ancillary Equipment, 225 Ancillary Equipment, 401 Ancillary Equipment, 1787 Brush Unit , 1252 Brush Unit , 2519 Brush Unit , 8004
And so on.What I need the table to look like is this
Final Equipment, 3 Mth, 6 Mth, Historical
Ancillary Equipment, 225, 401, 1787 Brush Unit, 1252, 2519, 8004
And so on, like a cross tab.I tried to do a crosstab query but I don't have enough fields.
I am trying to add calculations to queries based on columns in the query... it seems to randomly expect 'Expression' or 'Group by' as column types, and Im having to create 3 sets of queries following on from each other to de-dupe data and allow filters on calculated values.
Also I've got a function which turns a date into a quarterly cohort, e.g. Oct 2013 -> 20134. I use ot on a lot of dates. I created a VBA function, CohortQ used as follows in queries:
Code: Function CohortQ(InputDate As Date) As Integer If InputDate = 0 Then CohortQ = 0 Exit Function End If
[Code] .....
But when I run it on a date field, it gives me a data mismatch error. I can't step through as it's working on 600K rows. If I put the function into the query,
I am looking up a product based on a unique code in tblProducts...I need to return one of two values
If the value of [Product type] = "multi" then return "multi" else If the value of [Product type] = "solo" then return the value of the non empty field in a range of fields
for example
tblProducts PID (key) | PACKAGE TYPE | RED | YELLOW | BLUE C13T0714010 | single | <empty>| yellow | <empty> C13T0754010 | multi | red | yellow | blue
I am wandering if it possible to check programatically whether a query returns a NULL result?
I am writing a program(VB) that involves an IFF statement where if there are records in the query it does a specific calculation & if there are no records returned in the query it does something else. Is this possible to achieve?
I am having an issue with a select query as I want one column to show the MAX and "00" value of the same Column. How do I go about having this task completed.
For example, the column has 00,01,02,03,04,05,*1,*2,*3,*4,*5 so I want a query that will return values of "00" and "05" on this example 00 05
Further example, this is what I have now
SELECT qryPR34_UNION.PR34001, qryPR34_UNION.PR34002, qryPR34_UNION.PR34003, qryPR34_UNION.PR34005, qryPR34_UNION.PR34006, qryPR34_UNION.PR34007, qryPR34_UNION.PR34013, qryPR34_UNION.PR34014, qryPR34_UNION.PR34098, qryPR34_UNION.PR34099, qryPR34_UNION.PR34100, qryPR34_UNION.PR34101 FROM qryPR34_UNION WHERE (((qryPR34_UNION.PR34002)>"0") AND ((qryPR34_UNION.PR34003)>"0") AND ((qryPR34_UNION.PR34006)<"0") AND ((qryPR34_UNION.PR34099)>0));
On the WHERE command, I need field PR34005 to give me the "00" value or the MAX value (on my example the result will have to give me records that have "00" and "05" value assigned on PR34005
